Are you comfortable doing that? What is your base OS, and do > you need help? Nico ... By backport do you mean grab the .26 src rpm and then build off that spec with .24 sources etc? I did try that on a rhel 5 system (aha!) by changing the version in the spec and putting the .24 src tarball in ... but finally got stuck with: error: Failed build dependencies: jakarta-commons-dbcp-tomcat5 is needed by tomcat6-6.0.24-1.noarch jakarta-commons-pool-tomcat5 is needed by tomcat6-6.0.24-1.noarch But i got this from the 5 branch i think ... (tomcat6-6.0.26-1.jpp5.src.rpm from http://jpackage.org/browser/rpm.php?jppversion=5.0-updates&id=8588) so should a backport work on rhel5?
